lots of Hub, Fred Hubner and Spiegal over the next two weeks...and we're here to talk about it.

I was listening to Hub last night while driving around shopping. He talked about how he sets a budget for Christmas shopping every year which his wife exceeds.

I thought Hub was a tribesman.

I miss hearing Steve Silverman and Buffone during this time.

what happened to Silverman? He was ubiquitous at the Score for something like a decade and then just disappeared. I thought he was great.

Do any of these guys actually think they'll get a full time gig? They're never hiring a partner for Parkins or Bernstein. Entercom just fired producers so they definitely can't afford another host.

I like Hub. He made a good team w/ Murph.

But what's there to discuss? Bears suck, Bulls suck.

If one has listened to WSCR over the years it would seem the following is true about the Jewish hosts of which Bernstein is most representative.

Constant bashing of Christians, especially evangelicals, yet take every Christian holiday off and give Christmas presents.

Constant bashing of religion in general, yet are off on all the Jewish holidays.

Bashing of the purported evils of society, especially segregation, yet retreat to extremely segregated houses of worship.

One may think that 99% of what they say on the radio is simply performance art if you look at the reality of how they live their lives.

Yeah, Silverman was fantastic: knowledgable, articulate, and just generally a genial, jovial guy. It's amazing how he just disappeared from the airwaves. I see that he writes a weekly column for Forbes, but he doesn't seem to be doing much else media-wise. I wonder what happened.

Looks like he's an NFL writer at Forbes. https://twitter.com/Profootballboy?ref_ ... r%5Eauthor Edit: TM beat me to it. Agree with TM that he seemed like a genial, jovial guy in addition to being knowledgeable. Buffone's Silver Bells parody about him cracked me up: Silver-man, Silver-man, soon it will be Super Bowl...

No Shuster for his traditional Christmas Morning broadcast including interviewing a perpetually annoyed John Paxson.

I cut it out, but he left his phone number on his post if you wanted to call and see how he's doing.

Watching on Twitch and Spiegs looks healthy. Herb looks like he looked at Jiggs and J Hood and said that is the physique I want.

I'm listening to Bruce Levine and he's telling stories about how Ed Farmer could hook you up with pretty much anything because people always owed him favors. Apparently he texted W Bush whenever and they were on a first name basis. Interesting.

Hub and Spiegel have both worked the high holy days, saying it wasn't that big a deal to them. Bernstein has said he had to turn off a Bears game at sundown. Maybe it's important to his wife and her family but not to him. Who knows.

I thought Hub was a tribesman. and now Parkins did the same thing yesterday, talking about his wonderful christmas and the new holiday traditions he was starting with his son. Maybe his wife is christian. Still, it seems odd to me to grab on with both hands to religious holidays in which you aren't invested.
